If you are looking for a chain hoist that will allow you to work from virtually any position, whether space is limited, or you need to be above the load, then we also stock the revolutionary Yale 360 chain block which will do just that. The clever design of this chain block means you can also use it from the side allowing for horizontal pulling or tensioning. Its greater flexibility also means that the operator can work further away from the machinery for added safety. Not only can we supply you with a wide range of Yale products, but we can also repair them for you as well.

A pediatric anesthesiologist and associate professor at The Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York, Dr. Gooden discusses:

As a distinguished educator and clinician, Dr. Gooden understands the need for hands-on educational tools to promote best practices for pediatric anomalies. "The pediatric anatomy does differ from that of an adult," explains Dr. Gooden. "Therefore, the approach to airway management of infants and children is influenced by developmental differences in head and neck anatomy, no matter the device used to manage the airway."

"Clinicians haven't always had the right tools for the smallest airways," says Dr. Jack Pacey, President of Verathon Medical Canada and inventor of the GlideScope video laryngoscope. "Verathon Medical is committed to not only providing the right-sized tools for pediatric patients, but also providing the right educational information needed to help physicians who routinely intubate children, as well as those who infrequently work with kids.  Dr. Gooden's expertise and teaching style make her a wonderful partner in this effort."
